found it in a post by @Zevon. Thanks!
Happy Birthday CoSo! I've been here for two years and I flew in from that other site when it was taken over by someone nuts. I value all the folks I've interacted with over that time. I turned Pro pretty early on as I could see the value in this space. I'd like to make a gift to sustain this place, how do I do that? Can't find a link on the subscription management page.

At 78, Trump is not exactly the face of the party’s future. Nor did he deliver a “massive win.” He won less than 50% of the popular vote with many voters apparently unaware of his policies, and while the Republicans did retake the Senate majority, they did so with very little help from him. Republicans will have as bad a map in the 2026 midterm elections as the Democrats had in 2024, and Trump’s voters tend to be loyal to him and no one else, generally not turning out in midterms.

It really does seem like Trump is constantly asking "Where is the line?"
And the answer, all the way from the voting public to SCOTUS, is "There isn't one."
This is the question that needs to be raised with conservatives and especially republicans. "Where is your line? What would be a deal-breaker?"
These are the people who -- my whole life -- have been calling out moral relativism. And now, this is their guy. This is now their moral centre.
They need to made to see it.
@danialexis when I first started teaching back in the 80s our school closed that day. After about five years they stopped that practice. About 75% of the students just wouldn't show on the first day of deer season after that. Can't buck family traditions.
@thedisasterautist just like 45% of the American pubic.
@JanetZumba_FalPals holy shit - run away! Find another school or career counselor!
@TheAbbotTrithemius correction: it's brain worm guy. We knew it was coming, right?
@nonayadambidnes regardless, we're not powerless and we have to wake up every morning and take care of people, like we always have.
@nonayadambidnes Thanks for sharing this - helped calm me a bit and inspire me a lot! Worth the watch!
@thedisasterautist anyone want to donate a history book to Senator Graham's library?
Hard to believe this is real, but you know LIndsay Graham. I think the brain worms are jumping.

I've always loved Scotland and its people. They get resistance!

@Same_James has Shapiro spoken on this issue? I know a number of folks whose mail-in ballots are in limbo like yours.
@dauphin87 this little action was Donnyboy saying FU to the Senate for not confirming his anointed Senate Leader, Scott (R-FL)
"oh great, Really Concerned Susan’s going to ask questions — and then announce with great fanfare that Matt Gaetz has learned his lesson and he’ll never drive teenage girls across state lines for drug-fueled orgies again."
